Core Tip |
Although the main route of spread and symptomatology of coronavirus disease 2019 is closely related to respiratory tract, the gastrointestinal tract could be an alternative and potential route of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission and manifestation, most probably as a result of the overexpression of angiotensin converting enzyme type 2 (ACE2) receptors in the digestive system. Thus, this review primarily focuses on the analysis of some critical elements about the SARS-CoV-2 genome and its general characteristics, but most importantly intends to highlight the role of ACE2 receptor in both SARS-CoV-2 replication and pathogenesis, especially in the gastrointestinal tract. |
